deadbeat. is a chaotic, vignette-style comedy show that combines live sketches and drag to embrace the absurdity of our lived experiences as queer, mixed-race women in America — because what better way to shame colonizers than with a good laugh?
No deadbeat is safe — we’re taking on our absent fathers, bare-minimum dating app men, and infantilized women who simply can’t. With nods to reality tv, strong religious upbringing, and the absolute fever dream of modern news, deadbeat. unpacks the contradictions of the so-called American Dream with a hefty helping of satire. It isn’t just a show—it’s a hilarious descent into the madness, so get strapped [in]. Our tight, hour-long show has no intermissions. For the love of god and also your ticket money, please use the restroom beforehand.
